    I'm so excited; I found a Household treadle! DH and I just brought it home. I think it's in decent condition and it works--so that's a good sign. It has attachments and the original manual. Now I have to figure out how to clean it up and take good care of it! :lol:

    wow, mine has a cover just like that. NOTE: do not store it in the basement or it will come apart like mine did.

    Very nice, I love the wood.

    She's 29" to the top of the table. I don't know if that's tall or not. I don't have anything to compare it to.... I forgot to add that the coffin top is not original to the machine and cabinet, but it's a pretty good match.

    No basement here in Central Florida, but I can tell from the inside that the top's already been reglued. The wood's not warped or stained though.
